Our Green Friends: A Journey with Plants – Class 2

The young learners of Class 2 embarked on an exciting and hands-on project all about plants! This project was designed to help students explore the world of plants through observation, discovery, creativity and care.

Each section chose a sub topic – Types of plants and Parts of a Plant, Food from Plants, Non-food items or Gifts from plants, and how plants are essential for Saving the Earth. The students learnt about the different parts of a plant, their uses and the different types of plants. They collected wrappers and boxes of various food items, drew and coloured pictures of the same, collected samples to understand how most of the food items we consume come from plants. They also brought non- food items such as pieces of cloth, rubber gloves, and jute rope, among other things, to demonstrate the various useful things we obtain from plants. The need to care for the environment by planting more seeds and stop deforestation was reiterated through this project.

It was a delightful and educational journey that helped the children connect with nature and discover the joy of watching something grow.
